Global Sex explores the complex issues at the intersection of capitalism and sex through the powerful stories of four women.

'Where there is money, there will be sex.'Anthropologist Sine Plambech has dedicated her life to pursuing the trail of sex and money across continents. In Global Sex, she draws back the curtain on a hidden world, sharing intimate conversations with sex workers from Nigeria and Thailand living in Europe. And when she retraces the treacherous routes that led them from their families, she finds lives transformed by the money that absent mothers, daughters, wives and sisters send home. Plambech is unsparing in her analysis of the international sex trade, yet compassionate in her treatment of the women who work in it. It is these women who take centre stage, reminding us that behind every statistic, there is a human story.
